Help! Need advice for logging withdrawal bleed

RL

Hey!

So some background info: I’ve been on a continuous pill (no sugar pills) for about five years now. Therefore I haven’t had a period in a long time. This decision to have a continuous pill was made by my specialist due to my endometriosis.

Last Tuesday I took my last pill so I can begin TTC. I read in Taking Charge of your Fertility that I should begin logging my temps, etc with my first withdrawal bleed.

My first signs of a withdrawal bleed began on Sunday - lots of cramping and minor spotting.

I expected heavier bleeding to come but it hasn’t. I would definitely say my spotting became heavier yesterday, but I wouldn’t classify it as bleeding. My cramps have also almost completely gone away and it was back to minor spotting today.

Would you all just log this as spotting and start from Sunday? Or log it as a period since I know it’s my first withdrawal bleed, even if it was mild?

So confused!
